Ilona Maher Reveals She Was Kept at the Nail Salon for an All-Too Familiar Reason

“I totally understood. It’s a crazy world out there,” Maher said, adding, “You can keep me for as long as you want. I’ll cancel my plans if you want me for safety.” The female stranger safety network is real. As Maher said, “seriously, stay safe, ladies.”

In the comments, viewers were quick to praise Maher for being the ultimate girls’ girl, and to lament that this is still the world we live in. “It’s great to see all the ladies supporting ladies in the comments, but it would be great if we, as a society, could also do more to make sure that we raise men that we don’t have to protect ourselves from. Men, call out your misogynist friends. Dads, teach your sons to respect women. We’re tired of doing all the work ourselves!” wrote one. Truth.

Ilona Maher said she was treating herself to some mozzarella sticks and wine after her “vigilante” moment, and we couldn’t support that more. Ilona, you deserve all the cheese under the sun.
